Hey fellow book lovers! 

Happy New Year!!!  I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and safe New Year celebration.  2013 is going to be my year!  I'm exciting to say that I've had my book blog for 1 year officially on January 23rd! I'm so happy to (almost) complete my first year and I'm looking forward to my next year of book blogging. I'll be celebrating all month long with several giveaways. 

I've learned so much in the past year in regards to authors, publishing, blogging and so much more.  I also want to thank each and everyone of my readers, followers and fellow book bloggers for listening on what I have to say.  

There is some fun stuff coming up for the Shelf Addiction blog, and I'm excited to share it with you all. Starting with my new channel on YouTube. I created the channel several months back, but haven't done any videos...until now!  With the help of my awesomely talented sister and her honed skills, she's helping me out by editing my videos and providing original music for me! Yay!  Right on time for my 1 year blogoversary!   I will be posting things book related via video! I'll probably be doing a monthly book haul, monthly recaps and I'll most likely participate in video tags also. I'll be posting my first video in the next couple days or so! 

In addition to YouTube videos, I'll be doing the following. 

  • More author interviews. It's on my agenda this year to interview a few authors of books that I enjoy. To start, I hopefully can get a few indie authors. Authors, if you're reading this. Get at me if you'd like to be interviewed on the Shelf Addiction blog! 

  • More giveaways! My goal is to do one giveaway a month! For my loyal subscribers and Shelf Addiction book club participants, I want to show my appreciation by doing more giveaways! 

  • I'll be working on starting up the group that I came up with last year.  The GLBBA: Great Lakes Book Blogger Alliance.  I'm looking to make some new friends and start an annual meet up for us book bloggers in both the Midwest and Great Lake states.  The GLBBA is the current working name, but it isn't final yet.

Happy Reading,

To celebrate my first year of book blogging and to show my appreciation to any and all who follow, I'll be doing 4 weekly giveaways this month.

Congrats on making it a whole year on the 23rd. A year in blogging is quite a milestone considering all it takes to maintain one. Keep on rocking!

This sounds lovely! I'm looking forward to it all. Your post just reminded me that it is my 2 year blogoversary (like 3 days ago). I need to do something. Lol.
